Titan Run News

Our Titan Run is coming! We kick off our fundraising on September 12, 2019. Students earn tickets for raising money and participating. Those tickets earn them a chance at winning a variety of prizes. We need your help!

Join our Prize Procurement team and ask local businesses for support. Our coordinator, Beth Liles, has all you need to approach businesses and even a list of who typically donates to our school!

Titan Run: We need set up help, class photographer, someone to update our progress thermometer, classroom help and escorts, lap markers, help with lunch prep, and opportunities to donate specific food items for the student’s lunch.

How to volunteer this year?

We love volunteers, and we need your help! This year the Archdiocese has a NEW class for ALL parents and volunteers to take. EVERYONE must take the class, even if you have taken previous classes. This class is required for every volunteer even for one school visit. We realize this is a time commitment, and we appreciate you helping keep our students safe. For available CASE classes, see this document.
